by Charles Stanley

Misunderstandings regarding temptation:

  • Temptation itself is sin.
  • We fall into temptation.
  • God is disappointed and displeased when we are tempted.
  • To be strongly tempted means we are as guilty as if we had actually committed sin.
  • We overcome all temptation by separation from it.
  • When I am spiritually mature, I will no longer be harassed by temptation.
